What is CARF accreditation?
When considering a community program provider for people with disabilities and other challenges, how do you evaluate the different available options? Where do you look to determine which providers may offer the highest quality services? The answer is CARF International.

Programs and services that are CARF accredited have demonstrated their conformance to internationally recognized standards for service delivery. They have demonstrated their commitment to continuous quality improvement and a consumer-driven focus.

Person-centered services
Persons served play an active and vital role in the CARF accreditation process, from helping to develop the international performance standards to giving input on the quality of services they receive. Through accreditation, providers demonstrate their belief that all people have the right to be treated with dignity and respect, have access to needed services that achieve optimum outcomes, and are empowered to exercise informed choice. Goodwill of Southern New England is pleased to join CARF in this mission.

CARF International accreditation demonstrates a program’s quality, transparency, and commitment to the satisfaction of the persons served. CARF International is an independent, nonprofit accreditor of health and human services. For more information about CARF International, the standards, or the accreditation process, visit www.carf.org.
